The other program is just an example, most likely not exactly what you need. If you read through the thread, you'll see that the program and process related to in the Serin/Serout Problem thread (in the PBPro section) is for wireless transfer of data between 2 PICs, one getting the data from a DS1820 then transmitting it, and one receiving the data and displaying it. If you read thru it all, you'll find a working model of how to read the data from the ds1820 and send it out to an LCD without worrying about the intermediate serin/serout commands.
